Strengths: Its handling, its looks, its overall first impression it leaves you withWeaknesses: i wouldnt expect one for the high price of this frameset and foes gave me nothing to groan aboutBottom Line: By far my favortie bike ive ever had and ive had all the ones listed above. Its looks were the first thing that drew me to the foes. But looks arent everything and in this case it proved just so. The bike handles extremely well and the fork match up is only that made by a greater mind. The foes tube is bang on from the rear swingarm stiffness to the overall suspension feel and activation. Foes has definitely sold me on future lineups with just one bike. I can see why all of the top riders are currently set up with foes dh rigs . What more can i say ? Pure genious

Bottom Line:
This is a fantastis frame. While it mite not be quite as reactive as the M1 SL, the Slammer more than makes up for this when you consider that it is $500 cheaper, WAAAAY stiffer, and comes with a chain guide. The steeper and rougher the terain gets, the more at home this bike is.
